have invented a new.and Improved Lounge- Frame, of which the following isa specification.

The object of my invention is to produce a stronger and better lounge frame than that which has hitherto been in use, with agreater economy in the use of material.

Figure 1 .is a perspective view of the frame. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of one of the side pieces of the frame.

Lounge-(names hitherto in use have always been made with the foot-piece of one or more separate pieces, and the side piece mlso separate, sometimes covered with one continuous strip of veueering extending around the two sides and the foot.

tinuons strip or piece of wood I), Fig. 1, with a smaller continuous strip, (I, attached to it. A cross-section, at a: m, Fig. 1,-is shown in F.g. 2, showingthe relative position of a-and b to each other. aand b being bentinthe middle, and their extremities attached to the crosspiece at the head ot' the lounge, makea stronger and a better frame for the lounge and afford fewercrevices for insects, and in manufacturing cause less wastage of material than a frame manufactured in the old way.
